Review :

Flawed but entertaining

Giant trees, huge dark forests, coyotes appearing from nowhere, evil nannies.....it's certainly full of scary things, but the movie isn't really that scary. This is because Jenny Seagrove's character is far too humansied at the start for us to fear her as a monster. She is actually put in jeapordy, and she runs away from a group of rapists, which makes it seem as if she isn't very powerful. Then when she wants to she turns into a monster and flies after her victims. She should be fearsome and nasty straight away, and the audience should not be able to associate with her.

It is pretty scary at the end - especially when coyotes start appearing from nowhere to attack people, and when Seagrove flies after the hero, that really is frightening. And the look on her face after she's been hit by the truck.......that's REALLY frightening. The cast is pretty good, and the effects, save for the tree, are good. The tree should have been terrifying, but it isn't very well designed.

Still, this is an above average horror tale, with some very supernatural goings-on. And there is no explanation for the monster's existence, which adds to the scariness. Good stuff.
